Meet Mrs. Fadden

The 2017-2018 school year will be my 28th year teaching in New Prague Schools. I taught kindergarten for eleven years and now I'm in my seventeenth year of teaching first grade. I am a graduate of New Prague School High School and the College of St. Catherine. I received my Master's Degree from St. Mary's University in 1997. I have two children. Thomas graduated from St. John's University and is working as an accountant with PWC in Minneapolis. He is married and lives in St. Paul. Michael is also a graduate of St. John's. He lives and works in Minneapolis. My husband and I built a home so close to Raven Stream that I walk or bike to school most days! In my spare time, I enjoy reading, being outside, watching the Twins and Wild. I recently took up quilting- a test of my patience! I enjoy teaching first grade because the students love to learn at this age! Learning how to read is motivating. The children crave routine and like to have clear expectations. Six and seven year olds enjoy everything about life. (We could all learn from them!)
